Wish list

I'm looking at all these pretty things and I want them.

LC, with her impeccable taste - I love this Balenciaga bag! Although I liked the look of the magenta bag, I could not see myself carrying it, so I went for a more subtle colour, the deep maroon.



I'm so completely psyched and this has ignited the shopping spree within me. I look through hundreds of catalogues at work and will bring a wish list of the week.

I'm not usually one for brand names, but sometimes some things just catch my eye and makes me want it!

Other things on my radar:


The silver YSL Y-mail tote.


The red Valentino clutch.

Love love LOVE.

Another thing I love - the Gmail themes. This new thing on Gmail with is so cooooooooolllll!!!!!!

That's all from me now.

I always feel so cultured when I go to the theatre. There's just something about waiting to go and watch a musical. Albeit, I've only been to two for now, the Lion King and also the Beauty and the Beast.

So the first time in a long time that I've got a boyfriend, I can't go and watch it at the theatre with him. I went with my godsister and HIS MOTHER. It was just a gesture on my end to come to the theatre and she decided to, and we could not get tickets together and so we had to split up. I sat with Deb and him with his mom. Bummer.

But all in all a good night. The cast was brilliant and there was a point where the Beast was singing and I was absolutely spellbound. I don't think I was the only one because the theatre was so silent that you could hear a pin drop. It must be amazing to be able to mesmerize people with your voice like that.

Outstanding performances, I would have to say were Le Feu (however you spell it), the Beast, Lumiere and Cogsworth. Good job guys.

Onto the rest of today. I was a dutiful girlfriend and went to see this house that Luke was thinking of renting. It was all the way in Lenah Valley and it was a complete waste of my time. But at least I was there. I was then in a dilemma of whether I should ask my boyfriend to move in with me. I'm so not ready and as it is, we are only just celebrating our two month anniversary today. But on one hand, he needs somewhere to live, and I need someone to help me pay my mortgage. It would be a purely landlord and tenant relationship, and he would need to sign a lease and everything, but will he be offended? Anyway, the end result was that he and I agreed that he should take a lease up somewhere else and that way in a few months, we can see where we're at and then decide what we want to do. I think that it the mature, sensible decision.

I have also solved the problem of my New Zealand tickets. You know the ones that Jill and I had bought intending to go together and then she decided that she didn't want to go? Yup, those ones.

Luke and I are going to watch Australia and New Zealand battle it out at the Tri Nations in Wellington. I think that would be fun. Let's hope that we're still together!

And on another note, Erin bought me the yummiest focacia today. I'm still full from it!!! So good that I had to attached pictures:



And that's it from my end! I think it's been a fruitful day!

Happy times...

I am happy to report that I have turned the corner. I have turned the corner and am utterly in love. It's great too because I don't know what Damion is up to, and neither do I care, really! He is in my past and Luke is starting to look like my future.

I don't know what yanked me out of the black hole I was in, what made me not care anymore, but I don't. I really don't. And I think that if I ever came face-to-face with Damion, I will be able to say, FUCK YOU ARSEHOLE.

I'm happy. I bought a house, and it's all mine. Finance has been pre-approved. Just waiting for the First Home Owners Grant and for the house to be valued and it will all be mine. BWAHAHAHAHA...

So.... this is my house just before completion:

And then of course, my beautiful kitchen. I think the important thing in a house would be the kitchen and the bathroom. A bedroom is pretty much a room with a bed in it. A kitchen and bathroom would actually need WORK done to it if it's not great. Soooooo....

Good kitchen--- CHECK.



This is not the exact picture of the bathroom, but it is going to be something like this. I think if you flipped the image over, then it would be the exact picture. Who cares, it's got a separate bath and shower, that is all I care about.

Good bathroom - CHECK.


So more pictures of the ACTUAL house after Saturday, because that's the day I'm going to view it again! Yay!!
